Bordering on hate and slander one minute then remembering the "good" the next, after someone is gone. I have truly seen how the Catholic Church is the punching bag for religion and the Pope indeed suffers a great deal for it. It must mean the Church is doing something right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-2748174601488286042010-11-24T20:13:05.614-05:002010-11-24T20:13:05.614-05:00I have gotten to be a better Catholic and know abo...I have gotten to be a better Catholic and know about my Faith directly as a result from this Papacy. He will probably be for my lifetime "My Holy Father" most loved. I am most grateful to him and for what he does for the Church. Allowing Tradition and the Tridentine Mass to flourish again in the Church is showing positive results everyday. He has corrected a huge wrong in the Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-44846926342700975082010-11-23T17:35:52.148-05:002010-11-23T17:35:52.148-05:00ditto to what mackja wrote..i wouldn't change ...ditto to what mackja wrote..i wouldn't change a word.<br />Well said!<br /><br />I was happy the day he was elected!and still am!SqueekerLambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604597395421612386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-11008876213251137242010-11-23T17:08:25.245-05:002010-11-23T17:08:25.245-05:00I recall when he was cardinal he suggested the Chu...I recall when he was cardinal he suggested the Church may have to get smaller to grow. He seems to be helping reestablish the old boundaries and letting people sort themselves on either side of the line. <br /><br />rcgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-58994904856005536172010-11-23T16:25:05.577-05:002010-11-23T16:25:05.577-05:00I have no doubt the Holy Father is in complete con...I have no doubt the Holy Father is in complete control of what he says and what he is doing. He has a unique ability to hit issues and a person head on, grab their attention and then articulates his position with profound clarity. He has not backed down from anyone, he is courageous, focused and dedicated to the task at hand. At the same time he is a most wonderful pastor, who can show true empathy, and concern for his flock, then provide cortective measures with genuine kindness. This is an awesome pope, the Church is truly blessed.

I rather think it is one of the more powerful papacies in a long time. Controversial? Another media catch word. What is controversial about insisting upon right belief, right action, and right celebration of the Mass? I guess these things haven't been insisted upon in so long that it seems controversial.Genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06672484450736725268noreply@blogger.com
